WASHINGTON, July 15.-The Central
Vermont railroad on the Goth of June gave
notice of an advance of freight rates to
take effect July 3. Chaplin q Co. of Mil
waukee claimed under the Interstate law
the right to 10 days notice, j John Porteous,
general manager, in reply said; 81 do
not know of any clause in the Interstate
law requiring 10 days notice from Mil

Chaplin Il Co. sent a reply to the inter
State commerce commission and Mr.. Port
eous has been informed by the commission
that the law does require 10 days notice
and must be complied with.
The commission expects to be able to
conclude all the public hearings which the
parties desired to bring forward before the
close of the month. About August re-
cess will be taken so far as the public
hearings are concerned, the bureau work
being continued at Washington as usual
while the commission expects to visit var
ious portions of the Northern States when
public sessions will be held.

PERSONAL.

The Andover, Mass, correspondent of
the Boston .4dUertiscr, speaking of the
retirement of Prof. Woodruff from the
chair of New Testament Greek in An
dover Theological seminary, and his ac-
ceptance of the chair of Greek in Bowdoin
college says: at is generally understood,
although official action has not yet been
had in the matter, that Prof. Gould, form
erly of Newton Theological institution,
will be Prof. Woodruff's successor Those
who know Prof Gould speak in glowing
terms of his scholarship and of his magne-
tism in teaching" No better selection
could be made than that of Prof. Gould,
but his removal from Burlington and
from the pulpit of the Berean Baptist
church would he sad loss to the whole
community. For Burlingtons sake we
crust that the above report is not true
for Prof. Gould's sake we trust that it is.

SENATOR SHERMAN AFIx.
Blaine Said to Have Captured the state Of
Ohio.

WASHINGTON, July 15.-The Ohio demo
Gratis will hold their convention at Cleve-
land on the Goth. The republicans hold
theirs at Toledo on the 27th A demo
cratic politician, well informed as to the
affairs of the State, and who is going to
attend both conventions, expressed the
opinion to n Star reporter to day that
the conventions would be as interesting as
any that have occurred in the State for
some time. He says it is uncertain what
the democrats will do. If they nominate
Thurman and insist upon his carrying the
banner, he says they will carry the State.
If they fail to this, Powell, who has
negative strength, will be the nominee,
and there will be a hard fight He saws that
of course there is no doubt about Fora
ker's nomination by the republicans, but
the most interesting feature of the situa-
ton will be the question of whether or not
Sherman shall be Endorsed for the presi-
| dency.
While Sherman, beyond doubt he says,
has a majority of the republican voters of
the State, it is fact that the Blaine men
have so managed things that they will
control the convention and prevent any
| Endorsement of Sherman from passing.
| Sherman, he says, will be placed in the
awkward position of not being able to Sc
cure the Endorsement and of being ridicul-
ed and having his strength discounted if
he fails to make the attempt. it is the
opinion of the Stars informant that For
aker wants to 90 on the ticket with Blaine
in 1SSS.
A reporter asked Representative Butter
worth to-day what he thought would be
the outcome Of the convention. He re
piled that he did not know what they
would do about the Endorsement of Sher-
mon, as he had not seen any of the dele
gates, but he was sure that Sherman had
the State at his back. The republicans of
the State look upon him as a good pilot
into whose hands to trust the fate of the
political ship, with confidence that he
would bring her through all right.

can you insist that we be an exception to
all other State societies, or reasonably ask
us to place a five days exhibition, in the
matter OF price of admission, upon the plane
of a travelling minstrel company? The
railroads of the State, and the steamers on
Lake Champlain, have always cheerfully
responded to every reasonble demand upon
them, by reduction of rates to passengers
and the free transportation of stock and
other exhibits. and we confidently appeal
to the farmers and other citizens, to join
them and the joint societies by giving their
countenance and influence to sustain a mu
tual interest for mutul good.

Although but few chances were given the
flelders they did well, especially Edmunds,
who made a fine running catch, and Kear-
ney, who also made good stop.
The home nine did not seem to have any
trouble in pounding Whartenby, the new
pitcher, all over the field. He did not do
near as good work as Barrett has done
heretofore. Two or three costly errors
were made by the fielders, but aside from
that the game was well played, it being
contest between the pitchers.
Barrett while at the bat questioned one
of the umpire's decisions in regard to
strikes in a rather saucy manner and was
promptly fined S.. He then threw down
the ball over the plate striking him out.
Following is the score of the game:

BURLINGTON AGAIN DEFEATED.
Saturdays Game Dropped to the Rutlands
by Score of ii tOS.

The Burlington team went to Rutland
Saturday and were defeated again by the
large score of IA to S. There We're some
things that occurred but a few hours be-
fore the game that discouraged several of
the best players in the club, yet they
went in to play and did play good game.
They were defeated, however, in the two
first innings when Linehan gave six men
their bases on balls and made four wild
pitches, letting in four men. Such poor
work in the box thoroughly disguised the
audience, as well as the conscientious
players of the team. But Linehan braced
up in the third inning and blanked the
home team, and for the remainder of the
contest he pitched with his old-time effect
Granville was himself behind the bat
which is sufficient praise. His throwing
to bases was superb and was very effec
tive. The features of the game were a
magnificent one hand fly catch in right
field by Carrigan and three Dagger by
Hanrahan. While McGulrk has three
errors charged against him yet the chances
were all difficult ones and it was no dis
credit to him as a player in not handling
